yeah reminds me of some of the B grade oz actors working in Hollywood. I mean your Cate Banchletts & Russell Crowes got the accent impersinations down pat. But that dude from Avatar 'Sam Worthington' u can just tell he's a Aussi trying to sound like a yank. AUSSI hiphop feels the need to sound like your average ozi Surfer type but they can't help but mimic there U.S idols when they rap.

Yeah, Cate and Russell have pitch perfect accents, and so does Huge Jackman I think (spelt wrong cuz Jen likes him and calls him that. ), and Nicole Kidman of course.

As for those guys...............it just always bugs when singers in bands in countries other than America, try to sing in an American accent.............just dont get the point of it, especially when you put yourself under the guise of an "Aussie Hip Hop Group" or an "English Band"...........and you try and sound American, happens way too much.

Haha lol. I so know what u mean. Kind of like all these rock bands u hear whom round good on the bass, guitar and drums til u hear the lead singer sound like green day. I got no problems with people mimicing there heros. But the vocals is something important to try & keep fresh <along with great lyrics of course>

Funny you posted this. Was in South Dakota last week on business and decided to check out night scene and went to this dive bar where they were having a "Battle of the Bands". It was all death metal bands and the vocals sounded not much different than that rooster.
